“Well, we didn’t play our game, so we were well rested after that first game,” Bears head coach Ian Herbers said in a post-game interview with Canada West TV. “Saskatchewan played very good and they were good all weekend and played very hard. We weren’t skating, we weren’t first to pucks, we weren’t relentless, we weren’t tenacious, we weren’t playing in the O-zone, and that’s not like us. “This is the first part, we’re nowhere close to being done here and we’re trying to push for back-to-back national titles,” Sawchenko said. He’d come by the Oilers dressing room, as well, and share ideas and talk hockey.”Email: gmoddejonge@postmedia.comOn Twitter: @GerryModdejonge
